Famous quotes containing the words united states, places, united and/or states:

    It was evident that, both on account of the feudal system and the aristocratic government, a private man was not worth so much in Canada as in the United States; and, if your wealth in any measure consists in manliness, in originality and independence, you had better stay here.

    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Words whispered on Earth are heard in Heaven like thunder; evil done in dark places the gods see like lightning.
